Black Scepter Chapter 59: Silent shepherd

Two changes today, just ask for a red ticket!

.................................................. ........................

Thomas’s words seem to have the smell of ignition powder. In fact, this is not to blame him. As a Constantinople aristocrat who has no knights and only clergy among the elders of the family, his concept of the battlefield is only derived from literary works. There is not much respect for the soldiers dedicated to the country, and the Nikki family is a young pine among the Byzantine clergy nobles. The existence of more than six Cardinals in three hundred years has deeply rooted their family status, but the young heirs Although he has been studying in the seminary for two years, he seems to have forgotten what humility and respect should be.

"Maybe it is."

Morpheus didn’t have any superfluous reaction, but just silently ignored it, and sat down at the table and opened the book and looked down.

Unlike the sword-drawing that was directly engaged by the instructor in a sentence, Morpheus has no interest in in-depth conversations with this audacious aristocrat. Perhaps the other party just wants to show a sense of superiority in front of himself, and he has no obligation to go Accompany him for a show, then what to do and what to do.

The bottom line is not touched, Morpheus will not find trouble for no reason. This is the same as bypassing some fierce beasts in the forest. Dangers and accidents can be avoided. Only fools will rush into the world without fear.

When I saw Morpheus sitting down angrily, Thomas felt quite fisted on cotton, but he didn’t make any ridicule to ridicule anything. He also didn’t need this, but just left his lips slightly and walked away. , But stopped and watched not far away, it seemed that he did not want to believe that a knight who screamed "My Lord's Protection" in an impression would be able to understand the Aquinas works that he was not willing to study.

People are always like this. When they see the pace of the same kind ahead of themselves, they will always raise all kinds of incredible jealousy and suspicion in their hearts.

The passage of time, the afterglow of the setting sun stretches the figure of Morpheus through the window. The obscure classics are not like the magic books piled up by the indestructible dead knowledge, but it is a vast ocean of philosophical and profound words. , Morpheus gradually realized how profound the knowledge that the old man had was. The publication of the book in his hands was thirty years ago, which meant that he was shocked.

The seminaries don’t necessarily teach **** sticks. Morpheus thinks of the mockery that Tang Jidi often hangs on his mouth. For those priests who hang "lord" in their mouths, the old guys often sneer at some things, but treat certain things. ——For example, the black "Confessions" has a deep respect. The former Morpheus felt a bit contradictory, but now it is deeply accepted.

It seemed that it was time for dinner. The library was getting scarce. Morpheus raised his head and moved his stiff neck, but found that Thomas seemed to be there not far away, and said nothing. He walked quietly. On the bookshelf, another "Lembard Proverbs Annotation" was taken, and it was turned over, and when it felt a bit obscure, it was put back again. After thinking about it for a while, it took off an "anti-paganism" and read it with interest.

This action made Thomas in the distance a little impatient, but turned around, but his expression changed suddenly. When he got up, he walked to the door with a smile on his face. Although it was not flattering, it was very human. I think this mask is too artificial.

Morpheus did not pay attention to this detail, and used the quill pen to write down some of the essence on the blank parchment paper. "Anti-Paganism" is not thick, but it does give him an eye-opening feeling, theology It is not to reiterate over and over how God is omnipotent. The contribution of Aquinas's writings to the theological system can be described as a great achievement. It is the simplest and most fundamental question to prove whether God exists. It is to the Patriarchal Holy Court and even the Holy Papal Church All brought the gospel, and in the subsequent countless debates, with the well-deserved speculation ability and profound knowledge, he had the title of "Dr. Almighty". "Anti-Paganism" contains a lot of Aquinas debate materials, and also records Byzantine The "enemy" that the Holy See has faced since its inception-that is, what are the objects of the trial of the Inquisition, it seems that it can be unexpectedly repeated, and more importantly, in terms of content, the author has participated in or witnessed at least seven of them Into an event, where the danger of the enemy is far from ordinary people can imagine.

An old man with such a sharp edge is now hiding in a second-rate college?

Morpheus always invisibly connects this behavior with several other people who are familiar with it-one is Tang Jidi, the old guy who gave his Neapolitan magic steel dagger, and the other is Della, which A mysterious magician who doesn't know his or her origin has no idea how to judge the strength, but Morpheus is grateful to the three for their education, although many are not voluntary.

Sometimes, a few noisy conversations came from his ears.

"I think Saint? Augustine's works are more suitable for novices to read. His "On the Trinity" is the foundational theory of the Byzantine Holy See, I highly recommend it."

"Don’t like it? Then I think you can look at "City of God", it should be a good choice."

“I don’t think the Aquinas writing area is the area you should dabble in. Too obscure theories will disorient you, and even most of the seminary’s instructors are reluctant to use Aquinas writings as teaching materials, because that will Students can’t concentrate in class."

"I..."

The sound was not small, so Morpheus raised his head slightly. On the two huge tables in the Aquinas area, only Morpheus was alone. When he turned his eyes to the central aisle shone by the sunset, he saw Thomas and another figure.

At this moment, time seems to be still.

That is a figure that will never be forgotten in this life of Morpheus. The dark theological school gown does not cover the long hair like the nun’s uniform in the past. In the sunset, Jeanne’s petite figure walked gently, slightly curious. Eyes lifted, looked at each other, then stayed in place.

She opened her small mouth in surprise, never willing to talk, but never refused others. She stepped away from Thomas, who had been attentively beside her, opened her eyes to the standing, but A guy in silhouette in the sunset.

"Long time no see."

Morpheus looked at Joan of Arc, the unwarranted warmth under his heart.

Jeand’s smile blooms, and the lovely face is childish without fading, with a sense of holiness in the sun.

When the two met again, there was still not much speech, but the only onlooker was stunned.

Thomas opened his mouth and didn’t know what to say. Joan’s name in the academy has been spread by word of mouth, not only because of her more delicate face than Michelangelo’s angel sculpture, but also because she was holy. The degree valued by the dean of Pamir Theological Seminary-An unfamiliar girl with no aristocratic surname, from the first day of entering the academy, directly followed the dean to study directly without taking any prescribed courses, even All reading areas in the library are completely open-hundreds of clerics in the college, including mentors and deans, can have this power no more than two hands, the meaning of which is unimaginable.

The veritable angel of this student seems to have never spoken to others. Thomas believes that his family background is sufficient, and is a family successor. The forty-year-old bishop is a foreseeable fact, and at least it is The prestigious position of the bishop of the district, but he was too confident to forget the fact that the dean who can sit on par with the Cardinal of the Patriarchate not far from St. Pamel’s College should treat Jeanne in this way. What capital does the noble noble have to show off? If something has accumulated psychological superiority for a long time, it will become blind.

"I didn't expect you to be here."

Morpheus didn’t know that Joan of Arc came here, and the old man Aquinas didn’t point out clearly, but at the moment Morpheus also understood something, and looked at Joan of Arc who was dressed as a nun in front of him.

"En."

Jiande nodded seriously, his smile still.

Thomas already feels that his thinking is not enough. He seems to be afraid that he will be robbed of the so-called limelight in this way. He hurried to the position between the two. He said a little bit unclearly: "That...that, I’m taking Joan of Arc introduces the library, Morpheus, if you don’t mind—"

"No more."

Morpheus waved his hand, but he didn’t refuse too hard. He just looked at his Joan of Arc, and turned his eyes and said, "For her, the works of Aquinas area are enough."

It sounds too harsh on Thomas.

"Aquinas is enough? How does a warrior on horseback fight Aquinas in the theological system? Understatement is enough?" Thomas burst out as if he had stepped on his tail-"I really think you are a few sheepskins Paper can outline the whole theological system? Maybe you will bravely slash and kill for the Lord when you are fighting, but you don’t know what the "Trinity" means!"

He pointed to the parchment on the desktop Morpheus used for taking notes~IndoMTL.com~ Although not shouting, he was very emotional.

"Holy? Augustine's theory has not been uncommon to this point."

Morpheus squinted at the guy in front of him with a cold indifference, leaned back, but actually didn’t want to let the other party’s spitting splash on Jeanne d’Arc-but this was regarded by Thomas as a performance of Morpheus fear, So he was even more precise.

"Perhaps you have heard of it, yes, the Byzantine Holy See has tried to popularize education in recent years. Many people who have not been exposed to theology know what the so-called Trinity is, but--"

The words were not finished, but Morpheus stretched out his hands and squeezed his shoulders in a seemingly friendly way. At the next moment, Thomas’ expression suddenly twisted and he could not speak with his mouth wide open!

"I am not interested in listening to your preaching."

Morpheus’s fingers squeezed tightly at his collarbone, gently pulled him to lean outward, and then released his hand, watching Thomas pale as a result of pain continued: "There are many lambs, but I believe you are not qualified to be a qualified shepherd."

"You--"

Thomas covered his shoulders with cold sweat. He seemed unwilling to give up like this. He even reached out and grabbed a piece of parchment placed on the table. His eyes were scanned. He wanted to find a sentence to prove that Morpheus’s shallow knowledge was not qualified. But suddenly I saw the quaint words with the title of "Theological Encyclopedia", and Thomas, who was very familiar with the name, was stunned for a moment. Then he suddenly opened his eyes and looked at Morpheus again. The expression was like a ghost, and he raised his hand. Put the parchment back on the table and reach out and wipe away the cold sweat without running back!

Jeand looked at Thomas’s back, a little puzzled, but turned her attention to the Aquinas manuscript she was familiar with, immediately knew the reason, smiled lightly, but did not ridicule, only a slight pity and regret.

The silent shepherd is always the wisest.
